the thing that weirds me out about the xbox/dricas comparisons is not that they are fabricated (all that info is true afaik), but that their final conclusion is that the 360 will "fail like the dreamcast" ... since when did the dreamcast fail? it wasn't virtually abandoned by developers like the saturn was ... sega just pulled the plug on a perfectly good, competitive system because they were too retarded to make enough money to continue to support making it. in other words, all financial problems. and maybe it's just me, but i can't see microsoft having financial problems.
